Default Three enigmas on my hike this morning (ask for your CSI skills)

Three enigmas on my hike this morning:
1. The mystery of the polished elderberries ...
2. What creature is swirling the steel water tanks ...
3. What kind of algae is white and takes over the pond ...

1. The mystery of the polished elderberries ...
I figured out that the white yeast on these elderberries is flushed
off at the top by the birds who swoop in (they can't hover) and with
their wings, they flap and pluck berries - where the wings wipe the
yeast off the berries:

2. What creature is swirling the steel water tanks ...
But, what is making this swirl in my gray steel tanks and the same
swirl (in the middle steel tank) of my neighbor?

3. What kind of algae is white and takes over the pond ...
This stuff is white???? What is it? Is it algae which innoculates
the pool? Or some other cruft?
